TUYA API (Setup, Basics and FREE FINGERBOTS)

preview_player
Показать описание
In todays video we are looking at how to setup a Tuya Cloud Project. We will be running through all steps required including creating a developer account, setting up a project, setting up required APIs, connecting our Tuya / Smartlife app and importing our IOT devices and finally controlling a Fingerbot with the Tuya API Explorer. In this video we will be making use of the Adaprox Tuya Fingerbot which can be won by entering Tuyas competition.

Tuya is currently running a competition to encourage developers to create fun IOT projects. By completing "Missions" you can earn various prizes including a Free Fingerbot Robot, a $7 voucher and a $35 voucher.

In the coming weeks I will be working on and sharing my own projects that utilize the Tuya API to control a robotic vacuum. I will also be updating my Local Tuya Key Extractor Project to make use of some of Tuya's API calls.

Curious about the Fingerbot?

The Dev Pages have Changed a little since I created this Guide. I will be creating an up to date version this Weekend!

not only developers, there're all sorts of things can be supported by Tuya IoT- good job here!

just a small point; tuya devices primarily run locally now, and only connect to the cloud to update the devices status. you can try this yourself - unplug your broadband (but keep your hub on) and you can still control your lights etc. also means there's virtually no lag these days.

This video mostly still OK (as of october 2024) - and still very useful - such a shame youtube doesn't allow overlays on the original video to update the information (it used to, now you have to create a new video).
In this case - the data center names have changed and if you are in the UK (and your smart app or tuya app has devices registered in the UK) then you Must choose Central Europe for the server (not Western Europe) otherwise you can't use the scan function in the phone app to connect devices to the tuya cloud development platform.
Further - seems you can't change the server chosen (Central Europe or Western Europe for example) - I had to delete my entire developer account and create a new one with a different email address (and then make sure I chose Central Europe for the server)

Just discovered you today. Great video and following this video and your follow up I have installed the new tuya integration. Looks great!
I am trying to follow the competition now but can't seem to access it. Is it over ?

Hi Mark, Is it possible to change the instruction set of a device? I'm looking to change the scale of a tuya thermostat to 1 decimal place

Mark, Is there a way to program to get notifications? I have Tuya vib sensor and want to be notified when a vib has not been detected for a certain amount of time.

is there any chance to control fingerbots without a hub? even the new bluetooth integration not finding them. could you maybe do a how to to integrate them? an ESP workaround would be fine too. having a hard time integrating this little bot into home assistant

Hi Mark - great video - i want to call these APIs from make/integromat. Calling the apis you demonstrate here is easy, however, I need to setup the headers for each request, so what api calls do i need to make to authenticate and get whatever tokens I need to pass in the header of subsequent calls? Do you have a video on this or can u point me to an articel somewhere explaning the proces?

Does the Trial Edition only last for 1 month and then you must start paying?

If i have my own APP, i can control Tuya modules? Or the API just can be used on TUYA app?
